The first gen CRV is criminally underrated and unlike any other mini SUV. It has 4 wheel double wishbone suspension and is basically a beefed up version of what 90s Civics and Integras came with.
I like the gold emblem. I painted mine gold with translucent paint and called it the “gold edition”. Then the other day I saw one with a gold emblem at the wreckers and realized it’s a thing. I also painted the bumper and will paint the side trim. Wax from car washes always turns them grey.
I know this video is old but I like the build you have! I have had a white 01 all is stock but I want to have a similar build like yours; just seeing a lifted crv with beefy tires looks so satisfying lol. the only thing that is stopping me from doing so is the fact is not going to be my forever car, the first mod I am going to do is tint the windows
Sweet rd1, Im running the same maxspeedingrodcoilovers for 2 years and they're still holding up great! Picked up a set or Yokohama A/T's can't wait to get them, thanks for the info on the upper control arm spacer for ball joint correction
Around $770 give or take. I also have coilovers $220 if you add that probably around 1k. I went the coilovers to give it a even height. Then alignment was about $1xx can’t remember.
hi, your crv looks great, can you send a list of thats parts, we could find in a website, but i don´t know the names of those parts, please, thanks an congratulations.....
Thank you so much for the reply! I am picking one up in the next week, I wasn’t a big fan of the first generation until I saw yours lifted. It’s going to be my daily driver but also my work vehicle I do Instacart and travel about 150 miles a day so I was concerned about the gas mileage with the lift on it .
Where to find the headlight and rearlight protective grills. I been looking for those for ages and can never find them. Would you be so kind as to share the info?
How does it drive ? Does it shake when you accelarate MIne shakes like it has parkinson desease when I accelarate. The tires look good when they stick out but I removed my wheel spacers..they are useless.
It drive smooth. No shake from the axles that’s some are having on acceleration. But you can feel the power loss from the wheel weight and bigger tires.
You have the cleanest 1gen. I'm still working on mine, I got it a week ago. I hope to have all the bodywork done and have it in the paint booth by next month.
I got a 2000 off a buddy when I needed a car in a pinch, knew nothing about it. Its been a year, and I wouldn't sell it. Im putting some money in it soon
Just an advice. Do not upgrade ur sound system. People will just break your window and take your sound system. It takes few seconds to break your window and grab your nice expensive speakers. Just an an advice from an old man.

I got one. It’s cool, but awful body roll and is SLOW.
@@Jessecwebb you have blown out bushings and possible a missing swaybar and... its a honda which ones are fast stock?
One the cleanest builds I’ve seen, probably the best one yet.

Just got a 2004 Honda crv-ex can't wait to start restoring
“He added a basket” 😂😂😂
Nice job guys I'm currently have a 2004 crv and I'm painting it all black gloss
It looks so awesome that Honda what you guys think should I stick with gloss black or satin black thanks for sharing your videos
Matte black for me
What kit did you use for the lift kit if you don't mind me asking. Great looking build. 💪💪
Hi, new subscriber here!! Awesome Video! But the music is a little too loud. :) Keep making videos!
Nice mods very clean .
Can you make list on everything you have added to the CR-V?
Can’t remember. It’s been awhile. Sorry for late reply
No worries. Thank you for getting back.
Just bought one and i love it

Han went from driving super cars to trail killers
where you get the cage for the front and back lights
I agree!!! Where you find those light cages????
Aliexpeess.com look up crv. Some guy from Oregon or Washington state makes them.
The guy is on insta(crv_guards) and Etsy (crvguards).
How much did this all cost? I thinking of buying a 04 honda crv tomorrow and doing this would be so sweet
honestly it depends on what setup lift, wheel and tires you want to go for. My lift, wheels and tires for my 98 coat around maybe $1700-$2000
Is there a vid with no music
nice car!!Good work :) Please tell me tiress 215/75/r16 ?? And how many you have lift?? thanks :)
Link for speaker box would like to have one to tuck away as well
Yeah wonderful! Where do you buy your headlight protection? Thank's you i'm french
Bought it from a guy who made them who sold it on AliExpress
@@gtr__dave8258 thanks
DOPE AF!!! One of the best on youtube, well done!
When you lifted your crv did you also have to do a subframe drop kit ??
How much for the setup? Wish you have here in san jose ca
Hi broh, Where did you get the lamp protectors?😢😢😢😮😮😮
Sweet rd1, Im running the same maxspeedingrodcoilovers for 2 years and they're still holding up great! Picked up a set or Yokohama A/T's can't wait to get them, thanks for the info on the upper control arm spacer for ball joint correction
No problem. 👍🏼
I cant hear nothing with the music what lift kit what size tires
3” lift Mr. Moore
What’s that speaker set up I need that 💯
How much did the lift with all the correction you had to do to the angles and stuff cost??
Around $770 give or take. I also have coilovers $220 if you add that probably around 1k. I went the coilovers to give it a even height. Then alignment was about $1xx can’t remember.
Awesome build!! 👏 😎
When you did the lift did you also do a subframe drop from the axle wobbles?
sorry for late reply, no wobble at all. no subframe drop.
So you added the arm rests upfront? Mine doesnt have armrest.
No I didn’t. I got the seats from an auto ex crv that had the arm rest on the seat from a junkyard. Best time and money spent.
hi, your crv looks great, can you send a list of thats parts, we could find in a website, but i don´t know the names of those parts, please, thanks an congratulations.....
Did you found the parts ?
I am about to buy one, what would you say your MPG is with the lift and new tires?
Haven’t really calculate but it still isn’t bad.
Thank you so much for the reply! I am picking one up in the next week, I wasn’t a big fan of the first generation until I saw yours lifted.

Where did you get those cage looking things for the headlights and taillights?
It’s in the comments.
Love my crv 👍
Where did u buy that bumper guard can u post a link thanks!!
If you’re talking about the bull bar it’s a westin. You can find it on amazon or eBay.
Where can I find the clear reflectors for the bumper does anyone know ?
eBay or Amazon
What lift kit is used
I got a 2000 off a buddy when I needed a car in a pinch, knew nothing about it. Its been a year, and I wouldn't sell it. Im putting some money in it soon
Dude those light guards are sick, anyone got a link?
where can I buy a grille for headlights like this car?
Was going to ask same thing 😅
Does everyone’s crv doors squeak😂
Yes
mine makes a big CRACK sound halfway through
Just put some grease on the black part that goes in and out of the door. Stopped mine from squeaking.
Mine does the crack as well
Looks great
What headlight covers are those ?
Aliexpress.com and look up crv. Theres one guy that makes them and he’s from Oregon or Washington state.
What spacers did you run on front and back,
8mm back and 5mm front but I also shaved the front brake calipers because of the low offset.
@@gtr__dave8258 i mean strut spacers, 😅
Maxpeedingrod coilovers when they were cheap lol. I used those to even the height out because the front was looking a bit higher and didn’t like it.
Also I used aerogenices lift kit blocks
what’s the basket brand?
Amazon
What kind of tire do you have? I have the 1997 crv first gen
215/75/15 general grabbers ATs
Loving the CRV! What size wheel spacer ? And any links bro?
Thanks!!the front is 5mm and rear is 8mm. But I did shaved the front calipers down to fit the wheels more which is a must on a -19 offset.
great video, awesome mods! are the light guards custom made?
Ailexpress.com someone guy makes them.
What is the name of the front bar or any link where I can get it? Your CR-V look awesome
westin bull bar, doesnt come with mounting hardware which you can get on amazon or ebay
@@gtr__dave8258 thank you very much
Nice CRV Great job! 👍🇵🇭
what is the avg mpg?
No clue but it did good on 93 pump.
What year model is your CRV?
1998 LX
Nice modification, the black really mixes it in within the bumper
What year is this crv
98
How hard was to tint the back window, you know the one with the wiper? By the way your V is awesome!!
I haven’t done it yet but you’ll have to take off the wiper part off and the third brake light.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just an advice. Do not upgrade ur sound system. People will just break your window and take your sound system. It takes few seconds to break your window and grab your nice expensive speakers. Just an an advice from an old man.
Bro he has a garage
@@QNY96 My speakers got stolen at Walmart parking lot. Thieves will follow you when they think you have a nice sound system.
waaaoww!!!
Nice make up..👍💪
I ❤ my 98 rd1 I'm n the middle of restoration and modification now with her and I'm loving it
I wonder, with such a weak engine and no downshift, where can you drive on such wheels?
It’s me!!!!!
Do you have ins or fb? Oh i see your name, you come from VietNam?
GTR__Dave
Only thing that needed was a wing.
Do more CR-V videos
The crv was sold
gotta turn down the music. It's a little distracting. Other than that SICK crv!
What Tires and rims (sizes) did you put on the CR-V and where did you guys get the light guards?
15x8 with 215/75, light guards was some site
WAAOOW YOU ARE SO COOL, BATAM ISLAND IS HERE, BOSS
